Alabama was won by the Democratic nominees, former U.S. Representative William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska and his running mate Adlai Stevenson I of Illinois. This would prove to be the last occasion when the Republican presidential candidate won Lauderdale and Limestone Counties until Richard Nixon in 1972, the last when the Republican nominee carried Butler County and Walker County until Barry Goldwater in 1964, and the last when the Democratic nominee carried Winston County until Franklin D. Roosevelt won it by one vote in 1932.[1]
